Recording of alpha particles using the multi-pixel silicon detectors Timepix3
Keywords:
pixel semiconductor detector, recording system, recording of alpha-particlesAbstract
This paper discusses some of the features of the Timepix3 pixel detector. The number of channels of 65536 pixels with a coordinate resolution of 55 μm, a temporal resolution of 1.5625 ns and ease of use deservedly attract the attention of experimenters. The devel oped software made it possible to condact the first experiments with the recording of alpha particles, which showed encouraging results.
